The Eighth Edition by Thomas CHITTY. Vol. I. (.II.) Klein-Oktav. (1:) VIII, 814 S.; (2:) CXVI, p. 815-1.662 Two contemporary half-leather bindings with leather corners and coloured paper covering on the book covers. RG: P.370.8. This is the leading work on practice in England. In the United States, Tidd`s Practice is probably in more general use than any other English book upon the common law practics, and "has been universally allowed to be a model of completeness and accuracy". The reputation of Mr. Archbold`s Treatise, is mainly attributable to its two editions when Mr. T. Chitty first edited the book, into which he has incorporated the changes made in the English practice, by the "Uniformity of Process Act" and the rules and decisions consequent upon its passage. (Marvin 66-67) John Frederick Archbold (17851870) was a barrister and legal writer. He was the first editor of the English criminal law textbook Archbold Criminal Pleading, Evidence and Practice, which is still routinely used in court today. He was the second son of John Archbold of Co. Dublin. He was admitted a student of Lincoln's Inn on 3 May 1809, and was called to the bar on 5 May 1814. From the beginning of his career Archbold devoted himself to compiling legal treatises. In 1811 he brought out an annotated edition of Blackstone's "Commentaries" (London, 4 vols. 8vo), with an analysis and an epitome of the work. In 1813, he issued the first volume of "A Digest of Pleas of the Crown" (London, 8vo), a compilation of all the statutes, adjudged cases, and other authorities upon the subject. This was one of three volumes of "A Digest of Criminal Law", which Archbold had prepared for the press, but as several books on the subject appeared about the same time he did not issue the other two volumes.[1] In 1819, he published the first edition of what was perhaps his most notable work, "The Practice of the Court of King's Bench in Personal Actions and Ejectments" (London, 2 vols. 12mo). Previous to its appearance, "The Practice of the Court of King's Bench in Personal Actions" by William Tidd, was the leading work on the subject; but, while it maintained its place in the United States, it was largely superseded in England by Archbold's book, which was more explicit in regard to forms of procedure. Archbold's "Practice" went through fourteen editions. The third edition was edited by Thomas Chitty, who added to it the "Practice of the Courts of Common Pleas and Exchequer", and the ninth edition, which appeared in 1855-6, was edited by Samuel Prentice. The fourteenth edition, published in 1885, was revised by Thomas Willes Chitty and John William St. Lawrence Leslie.[1] About 1824, Archbold published his "Summary of the Law relative to Pleading and Evidence in Criminal Cases", in which he incorporated the greater part of the two unpublished volumes of his "Digest of Criminal Law". The fourth (1831) and four succeeding editions were edited by (Sir) John Jervis, the tenth (1846) to the fifteenth (1862) by William Newland Welsby, and the sixteenth (1867) to the twenty-first (1893) by William Bruce. The twenty-second edition, by William Feilden Craies and Guy Stephenson, appeared in 1900. The work has gone through a number of editions in the United States.[1] In 1829, Archbold published a work upon the "Practice of the Court of Common Pleas". Afterwards the practice of all courts of common law at Westminster was assimilated and much altered by the statutes and new rules of law on the subject between 1831 and 1834. To meet the altered conditions he published his "New Practice of Attornies in the Courts of Law at Westminster", which appeared in 1838, was remodelled in 1844, and reached a third edition in 1846-7 (London, 2 vols. 8vo). On the passage of the Common Law Procedure Act 1852, he prepared "The New Rules of Practice in the Courts of Law" (London, 1853, 8vo), and "The New Practice, Pleadings, and Evidence in the Courts of Common Law at Westminster" (London, 1853, 12mo).
